Raw Material Testing

In the context of growing consumerism and stricter regulations, the quality and integrity of the food raw materials have become a vital factor for the safety and competitiveness of products in the global market. The proliferation of foodborne illnesses, adulteration cases, and environmental pollutants serves to bring focus on the lack of sufficient analytical systems in place around the world. As a certified bio-environmental company that provides solutions for food safety, we understand that supply chains pose several complex issues that require our modern Raw Material Testing Services. From command and control of contamination to nutrient profiling, microbial analysis, and ingredient labeling verification, our modern food safety management systems are based on these services.

Service Overview

• Detection of Contaminants
  The systematic detection and definition of contamination levels include all the following:
  Heavy Metals (Lead and Cadmium, Mercury and Arsenic)
  Residues from pesticides ( organo-phosphate, organo-carbamate )
  Mycotoxins (Aflatoxins and Ochratoxin A)
  Processed Contaminants (Acrylic amide, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons)

• Microbiology Testing
  Testing for the following pathogens and controlling the level of hygiene in ones and others conditions:
  S. Typhimurium, L. Monocytogenes, E. coli O157, H7
  Total viable counts, yeasts choice enumeration, mold counts
  Predicting the shelf life through challenge testing
• Identification of Ingredients
  Provision of authentication of services is done through the following:
  DNA bar coding (a method of species ascertainment)
  Isotope ratio analyses (obtaining geographical origin)
  Known spectroscopic methods in fingerprinting (identify adulterants)

Technical Principles

The integration of state-of-the-art technologies and bio-sustainability is the core principle behind raw material testing services bios. We realized the vision by adopting its own bio-sustainability policy which incorporates the use of a variety of tools and techniques, some of which include:

Technology Characteristics

• The sensitivity of the methods pioneered here is unprecedented.
  Detection thresholds surpassing standard limitations
  Heavy metals detected with sensitivity of 0.01 ppm with triple quadrupole ICP-MS
• Elevated Throughput
  Automated sample preparation systems, such as the Gerstel Multi-Purpose Sampler.
  Simultaneous running of 384 samples in microbiological assays per single run.
• Changes in Methodology Flexibility
  Protocols for new matrices such as plant-based proteins and insect flours.
  Workflows for novel contaminants such as PFAS and microplastics.
• Resource Efficient
  SPME for GC analysis without use of solvents.
  Energy-efficient LC systems with column recycling protocols.
